First sentence: ALTHOUGH Indian history in our day seems to have lost many of its charms, by reason of the numerous other more highly interesting subjects which the advance of science and the recent increase of knowledge have presented to our minds, we cannot, in treating of the antiquities and early history of this Island, avoid giving some account of the aboriginal tribes which formerly lived upon it, intimately connected as they were with that period in the history of our own race.
